kidkanevil is here once more with his third Long Player, considering his debut LP “Problems and Solutions” only dropped just under 3 years ago that’s one hell of an out-put, and not one of these LP’s I would consider throw-aways. kidkanevil has re-invented his sound once more – “Problems and Solutions” was a heavily Hip Hop inspired album with tracks littered with help from established acts such as Lateef, Andreya Triana, Yarah Bravo, Chris James (Stateless), Double D Dagger & Jehst. Kidk’s second album “Back of Man I’m a Scientist” stepped back from the hip-hop sound a little with some great tracks exploring Reggae, Soul and beats such as Black Bug and Stomp whilst Double D Dagger waded in once more with “RIP” a heavy critique of the hip-hop world. And just to show how popular kidkanevil’s music is First Word Records released “17 Samuarai Vol. 1″ an album dedicated to remix’s of kidk’s previous output.
Yet this 3rd album is an exploration of kidkanevil’s creative inspirations from Asian and Japanese culture. Minimalistic laid back tracks carefully littered with rare film samples and old school nintendo samples & some tracks having no drum patterns at all. I have to admit my favourite tracks are When Doves Bounce & the simply brilliant synthy “Yokai”.
“I was watching a lot of Japanese cinema, listening to a lot of out-there, classical music, going a bit loopy really,” kidkanevil explains. “That was the starting point.”
This is simply creative music, you won’t find any big club stompers but an outpouring of an intellectually stimulating imagination.
